Just a note if you want to use Altemuller. Unique faction buffs do not stack and the latest buff cast will override the previous. So, if you are also using Bernhardt, keep this in mind. Your best bet is simply switching over to a Strategist team with Altemuller at the helm since there is a lot of overlap with Empire/Strategist. (Altemuller, Leon, Vargas, Imelda, +1)
I more or less finalized my roster anyway.
SpoilerMain Team:
Bernhardt (Faction leader)
He is imo better than Altemuller for general use since that extra class advantage bonus is massive. Not to mention he is much more versatile as a unit despite carrying the Faction buff, being able to choose between free damage with Shield Bash + Sever, a tank build or just applying debuffs with Hegemony to soften up targets for Leon.Leon (Horseman of Death)
Leongrisser, 'nuff said.Vargas (Tank)
While he is nowhere near as broken as Ledin he is still an excellent tank with his multiple sources of damage reduction. MVP in 3-6 Elite, Leon's Gates of Fate and other Cavalry-heavy maps.Imelda (Mage)
Kills physical tanks, throws AoE spells and while she's at it she heals everyone with Force Heal. I suppose someone like Egbert (AoE debuffs) or Lana (that range) are probably better than her for but the extra sustain goes a long way for Vargas and she has some variety in spells between Thunderstorm and Blizzard (the latter being very useful to turn off tanks).
The only thing that really sucks about her is her personal skill. That HP loss is really annoying.For the 5th spot I will choose among these 4 (5) depending on the mission:
Liana
Yep, finally pulled her after 140 pulls. She will probably be deployed the most among these five since she can be the dedicated healer while Imelda can run a more offensive set. Between Heal, Again and Gospel you are not wanting for another healer anyway.Altemuller
You said it yourself, Faction buffs overwrite with each use. That plays in my favor though. If I deploy Altemuller on a map I use his buff first, let my other units move forward and then overwrite it with Bernhardt's for the damage increase.
Aside from that though Altemuller is imo the most confusing character to build. He seems like a tanky flier but the Faction buff limits his skill slots. I currently run Healing + Raging Thunder, that way he can deal a good amount of ST damage while being able keep up his personal skill for the extra stats.Chris
Demon killer waifu. Especially during the story and Time Rifts you fight a lot of demons, so Chris with her anti-demon damage and added healing utility comes up a lot. Empire doesn't have any good Holy units to begin with (Anna is quite frankly horrendous once Faction buffs come in play) so I think including her in my permanent roster was the right choice.Narm
Best Archer in the game. Doesn't say much since they aren't really outstanding due to their underwhelming stats. That being said Narm is making the most out of this class with her superb range and being able to kite pretty much any unit she attacks. Comes very handy in PvP to neutralize mages like Lana.Jessica
Warp, I mean, Teleport. I suppose she could be useful for Meteor for all 3 elemental AoEs with Imelda but I don't want to raise 9 characters knowing that EXP is running thin at higher levels. I'm probably over my head with 8 to begin with and alongside Narm she is imo the best bet to be neglected in favor of others.Benched:
- Cherie (Cherie is very good and being at 4* makes her even better but without a faction buff she falls short)
- Lance (if I really want another flier Cherie without a faction buff is still leagues above him)
- Matthew (see Lance though I think he has some niches as a buff bot)
- Almeda (got Liana so I have no real reason to use her tbh)
- Grenier (he is vastly outclassed by other tanks; worst among the starter trio)
- Leticia (I'm so sorry but I don't have the resources to build you. Goodbye, Rally Movement lady)
- Scott (*shakes head*) -
@MrSmokestack
I thought you wanted NP2 Saber Alter.@Jedi Jesus Christ, how much did you roll on that banner to get that many CEs?
Oh yeah, Valentine. Just MLB'd the CEs, now I'm getting down to farm the shop and potentially some chocolate. Really it's a rather boring event, all things considered but it's decent to farm hearts since the best Cavalry node spawns demons for Caster enemies.
What comes after this though is going to be way more exciting.

Turns out Rarity plays a huge role in max stats and "Hero Boosts" (Each hero boosts their soldiers' stats by a certain amount.
This is a problem shared among SSRs as well. Cherie's offense is forever cursed to be worse (as in much worse) than Leon because her Hero Boost aren't just good enough.
9 hours ago, Sire said:However, I'm still mostly running the same team as my previous post, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to get the event Bozel because I'll have to grind the event to get him (and I'm not level 40 yet to unlock the 45 slot). I don't have Luna and do not really feel like investing in more units as my resources are limited and I really don't have any spare burgers for stamina.
Uhm, 20.000 points is nothing. As long as you find a team that run full bonus units you're getting there in no time even if you only run the first node.
The bigger problem for you is to get to 47.500 because of that SSR accessory. They are hard to come by, especially in regards to future merges (or the pure RNG involved with them). The rewards from the higher tiers aren't really worth the points unless you really want that gold.-------
I don't think I will get Liana on this banner. I threw more than enough tickets/crystals on her and only got a Dieharte dupe to show. Didn't get Varna or Liffany either to complete my SR collection and my rate of getting tickets/crystals has stalled a lot compared to the beginning.
On another note I'm wondering if I should bench Cherie and make Altemuller my permanent flier for the Empire. I reached the point in the story where terrain screws over Leon so hard (*insert sand prequel memes here*).
-
After playing enough rounds of World Arena I'm now inclined to do the matches just for weekly rewards.
The matchmaking is utterly ridicilous. Like what's the point of matching with someone 5 Levels higher or lower than you? At least a win earns you triple the amount of points you bleed per loss but it's still really tedious.
The PvE Arena on the other hand is fine imo.Btw. if you have SSR or SR heroes check on the Bond option if you can unlock their "Gate of Fate". It allows you to farm shards for that hero. That means you can upgrade their star rating without relying on the gacha.
You only get 5 shards on the first very run of every node and afterwards it awards only 1. There is also a limit how many runs you can attempt and only every 2nd node gives you shards so it's a very long grind (though these nodes have the sweep option and only cost 5 stamina each, so daily commitment is very doable). I don't think it's available for everyone so far but I would guess that every SSR got the option.On another note Imelda's Force Heal is kinda ridicilous, especially coupled with Mass Heal. You tried to nuke down my team with Meteor? Too bad, she just healed away all the damage.

man i'm kinda burned out a little on fgo.
Now might be a good time to take break if you feel that way. Until Shinjuku at the end of February there is really nothing to do in FGO and during the whole EoR year we don't get that many original events either (besides CCC). imo until April you can probably leave the game alone and don't miss that much.

Maybe you're doing what I'm asking but:

The most limiting factor imo is equipment. I find it really hard to maintain equipment levels and because of that I concentrated on equipment sets for my Empire faction.
Like forging a single piece of SR Armor just to 30 takes a lot of gold hammers.
Getting a character to your current level on the other hand seems really trivial. They only need a couple of Gold/Silver potions to catch up. Of course whether that applies later on when we get all the way to 60 is left to be seen.7 minutes ago, Shrimperor said:Btw, was anyone able to defeat the Statue dude (after Isskano Fortress)? The units are way too tanky, and while i could decide to send all my units on one side (since it's a defeat boss mission), that one side still completely destroys me xD
Warp skip your DPS to Jessica, punch her until she crumbles. If possible warp your healer as well to provide the necessary sustain.
That worked for me at least. -
@Sire Make a new window/tab for editing your post if it's long. That worked for me.
Legion of Glory is easier to build on while Empire (and strategic masters) pretty much exist to maximize Leon who you don't have. Some overview for you:
Legion of Glory
-
You get a great foundation almost for free; the 3 protagonists, Jessica, Cherie and potentially Narm.
- Cherie is only second to Leon in regards to DPS and is potentially better against multiple enemies thanks to her personal skill.
- Narm is probably the best Archer in the game. While Archers aren't that great she takes good advantage of being a ranged attacker due to her excellent skills.
-
You don't need a lot from the gacha to be covered for everything.
- Ledin or Elwin for a superior Faction buffs are a no-brainer but with Grenier around they are not an immediate priority.
- You lucky bastard got Liana so with Almeda and Jessica you are set for life in regards to team sustain and utility.
-
Hein and Chris are specialists, one for magic and the other against Undeads (which come up a lot). Hein is probably someone you really want since he is the prime magic user for this faction and some fights absolutely require the use of magic.
- That being said if you get Jessica to her ultimate class she can use Meteor and cover your needs for magic that way.
- The only problem (imo) that Legion has is the lack of good Cavalry units. Afaik people put Leon in their teams for that since it's Leon but Cavalry!Matthew or the free Dieharte can be a good substitute for him.
Empire of Honor
-
It's unanimously agreed that Empire requires 3 specific characters to start off; Bernhardt, Leon and Vargas.
- The reason is that Empire makes Leon even more broken since you can relocate the faction buff to someone else (Bernhardt) and cover his lesser points like durability and lack of ranged attacks.
-
Empire has a lot of good magic users and it has a lot of tanks or tank-like characters. They also have access to many Cavalry units like Sonya or Laird.
- Bernhardt is a jack-of-all-trades but he is more about providing passive bonuses for the entire team and tanking some damage. This is one of the reason why he is key for Empire.
- Egbert is a very strong debuffer, something that is very revelant in PvP.
- Imelda is a well-rounded magic user, providing everything from magic damage, buffs and even healing. She doesn't excel in any of these but her versatility is her biggest strength.
-
This faction has a lot of problems regarding other classes. Lack of Archer doesn't matter that much but the healers in this faction are really not outstanding (compared to say Liana or Tiaris) and the Flier choices are vastly inferior to Cherie.
- Lance is a free SR but he has no real sustain on him (besides First Aid which might as well count as none) so you mostly use him for treasure hunting or as a suicide bomber.
- Altemuller is an SSR and even then he is kinda eh for combat.
- Empire's greatest strength comes from its characters overlapping with other factions, meaning you have versatility for your faction buff. But that requires you to pull these characters and all of them are SSRs.
Tldr; go Glory with your current roster. You have almost all the key players and basically only need Ledin/Elwin and maybe Hein. Like you pulled Liana and Chris which are probably the most important kely players beside the protagonists what more do you need?
-
You get a great foundation almost for free; the 3 protagonists, Jessica, Cherie and potentially Narm.

I'm already full of Casters (I still want at least 1 from the big four because they're godlike supports) but hey, Da Vinci seems fun and is important for the story so having her lines available whenever I want is a big plus.
I also got my first Stheno, finally those +150% Atk Ishtar memes won't be a dream anymore, I just hope this doesn't get in the realm of diminishing returns.
Musashi and Ereshkigal are disappointed now. Congrats, how much did it take?-------
Phew, finished my runs on the challenge quest.
Spoiler1st run: Why Gilgamesh is the strongest Servant
Gilgamesh - Merlin - Support Waver - Mash - Ozymandias - Heracles (Bond CE)This is the setup that made me want to do the 2nd run on this. The team is a literal cheat code. Gilgamesh becomes immortal through Garden of Avalon and then proceeds to wipe the waves with Ea spam. Heck, even the Homunculi just straight up die to Hero Creation Crits, it's so stupid. Nobody died either so this run gets a "Disgusting/10" from me. I'm probably abstaining from using Gilgamesh + Merlin again.
2nd run: Why is Saberlot not a SSR again?
Saberlot - Tamamo - Support Waver - Waver - Mash - Robin HoodCompared to the 1st run it took a bit longer but that's to be expected from the lack of AoE NP. Despite this the run was straightforward though it got a bit too hot against Amakusa because he was about to use his NP.
Still nothing significant happened. It's a Saberlot run what did you expect?Might do another run with a different setup. I was thinking of dusting off Vlad since him and Tamamo are really good together to keep NP usage down while he has a much easier time with the Rulers. Dantes might get a bit too spicy though and it sucks he still doesn't have Legend of Dracula.

2 new banners are up.
One has Ledin and Liana, the other Lana and Bozel.All 4 are highly sought out SSRs. Lana and Bozel are pretty amazing mages though we are supposed to get another event where the reward is a free Bozel.
Ledin has not only a very good Faction buff for Legion of Glory but he is an amazing tank as well.
Liana is this game's dancer. I don't think I have to elaborate here. -
It would have been awesome if the character models would change according to their current class. But I guess that would quadruple the work for each character.
Though Imelda, Narm and Cherie could use being a bit more covered up.What sub-tree did you guys get for your Matthew?

I think a Glory team might need Elwin, too, since he has the Glory Faction buff. Luckily, i got him
Grenier has a Glory Faction buff, too, if he goes the center transfer path, so Elwin (or Ledin) are not necessarily needed for Glory.
That being said his buff is not that exciting compared to these two. -
Just ranting. tldr; I'm quitting this game for good.
SpoilerNot getting Leanne with a 7.5% rate was the final nail in the coffin. Not that this didn't happen before (Azura or Lewyn on Hero Fest, Alm on TT2 and L!Azura) but apparently I just needed that one more kick between the legs to wake up to this being a gacha game.
Oh, what's that laying on the ground? Tons of salt? My bad, there's more coming from this point onwards.CYL3 mid-results just showed me that Heroes' problems will not improve anytime soon. People are voting for OCs and Fates characters while mostly disregarding the other series (with few exceptions as always).
Is it the fault of the players though? No, I don't think so. As much as I hate the idea of her having a 7th Camilla that's what people want. Can't hardly fault people for not knowing anything else at this point. But I can peg this issue onto something else; IS' lack of competence to market their games.Fates is the most recent title in the series (Echoes is a remake) so naturally many people will have a connection to it and there are evidently enough people who only play Heroes. Of course these two will be more recognizeable than others and have a bigger following. What other reason is there that nobodies like Lif and Thrasir manage to be in Top 20 over hundreds of other characters?
Yet Fire Emblem has a longer and richer history than this. It's nearly 30 years old now and spans over 12 unique titles. Just padding Heroes with only a single game is a stupid idea and its uninspired OCs doesn't help either.What they should have done is to make these older games familiar to players. That way they would satisfy older fans but also open up more potential material to sell later on, even outside of Heroes. Think about it if we had the perfect scenario of having a relatively diverse banner line-up from different games that would not only sour the minorities of older games but also help to sell more Echoes games (the Judgral series in particular) to a new audience.
FEH having that back-up of a big name means there shouldn't be too much work to make these characters interesting since there is enough background material.But no, IS' inability to make these characters appealing through the story, events or general dialogue blocks any hope of this game being anything but about its OC and Fates.
Look at Binding Blade which had no new banner for 2 years and the sad tale of Thracia 776. Considering how IS treats these two games how can someone new be interested in these games? It's just sad that Reinhardt and Roy are carried by their memes or other media, not through their origins.Honestly, does it even matter what game we're getting at this point? There is nothing accompanying it to sell these characters, outside of gameplay reasons or being a personal favorite (which applies to anyone so a moot point). The entire Heroes plot is "Contract. Fight. We freed them. OC talk. End". Even in Book 3, read the latest story chapter if you want further confirmation. TT's one-liners are a teardrop in a bucket and most FB are more about stroking the avatar's crotch than about the characters themselves. Of course only the cast of the newer games have any chance of being recognized for something more than a picture.
I could look away at Heroes' other flaws like constant powercreep, abundance of alts or several others, if at least the story would be engaging and characters are not just their art. But that's not the case and combined with:
- garbage PvP
- lack of meaningful or engaging content (events, grinding resources)
- almost complete dependence on gacha for skill inheritance
make this gacha game a lost case and considering its nature as a gacha that's awful. It's few positives like Tactics Drill and challenge maps aren't enough to keep me interested and there are much better games within the gacha hell that are actually worth the time and dedication.
Heroes will still rake in money for the coming years that's a fact but it comes at the expense of bastardizing its origins and that's something I absolutely regret to ever have spent so much money into over the past 2 years.EDIT:
At the topic of CYL3; another good example is the sheer support coming from YouTube campaigns. Louise and FemRobins are very good examples of this, where people bandwagon behind something they can recognize quickly. -

Dailies give you a lot of team EXP, so make sure you do them.
Otherwise every point of Stamina equals 1 team EXP. Since Team battles give you a discount on stamina spamming Co-Op Secret realm battles is probably the fastest way. Even better if you have some friends who can auto-battle.--------

To me, it sounded like you suggested that by playing Rhajat already, they wasted a popular Hoshidan 2nd Gen and that there were none left. Thus I pointed to Caeldori and Asugi. Perhaps I misunderstood.
Yeah, no.
I was very dissatisfied to see Rhajat instead of any other child for that matter but on the other hand due to IS' stupid boner for females there weren't other girls to take her place. Caeldori is as bad as Rhajat and Selkie coulnd't be implemented, so that leaves us with Mitama as a Hoshido-exclusive.
imo Midori would have been much better.5 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said:Of these, in Gen 1, we have a lot of men left, generally those who are less handsome. With Panne assuredly coming eventually, all we have left is: Miriel- a nerd; Anna- but we already have her sister; Say'ri- they already played the broken sword woman card twice- can they really do it again?; Flavia- maybe too manly?; and Emmeryn- do we trust IS not to pander this mentally impaired from traveling at terminal velocity woman?
Gen 2 has more potential, since five of them are women. And there are enough for two banners exactly. But how popular are all of these characters?
Specifically Gen 2 had much more potential and they only included the Morgans, Gerome and Owain so far. Tbf Severa and Inigo would have been pretty boring since
1. they are canonically Infantry Swords (though they could have made Severa a Horseman aka mounted Archer and Inigo an Axe Hero).
2. technically they are in the game.
Still, Cynthia is a very curious omission and Noire is only in the game as a Seasonal. -
15 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said:
But what about Caeldori and Asugi? Is Awakening a dinosaur now? I thought they were popular?
I'm not sure what's your point is? Caeldori and Asugi are about as bad as her, being essentially pseudo-alts, just not labelled that way.
In Heroes we only have Shiro and Rhajat for Hoshido Gen 2 while Nohr gets Siegbert, Soleil, Ophelia and Nina. So that's 4vs1 in terms of original children and that's pretty terrible.Awakening is apparently not important enough considering we only got 2 banners this year (with almost no seasonal representation), 1 being very underwhelming (the one with KE Chrom and the Morgans).
You know for the game that actually saved the franchise (for better or worse) they certainly don't treat it that way. -

While I am enjoying the game, I after doing some research I am hesitant about its gacha rates as well as its rarity system. Gacha rates are extremely terrible (what else is new?), but apparently low rarity Heroes are worthless. I know the rarer the unit is the better it usually is, but it seems that lower rarity heroes are abysmal and are not worth it outside of a few exceptions. I don't know how much of this is true, but that is what I understood from what little I've read.
Well, the rates aren't as terrible as FGO at least.
SpoilerMost of the R Heroes are pretty terrible but there are some good ones among them.
Jessica (the R mage you get for free) is incredibly due to having early access to Teleport (which is basically Warp in FE terms) and get Mass Heal from her Bishop transfer. Later on she has access to Meteor which is an anti-infantry AoE spell.
Another one I can recommend is Leticia, a Cavalry unit. Not only does her personal give everyone +1 Mov one of her future skills stacks it to +2, meaning everyone gets at minimum Cavarly movement. You can probably tell that's pretty busted and allows for pretty disgusting rush strategies.Why the hell do we get Scott instead?Beyond that if you want to be competitive in PvP then you need SSRs (+ potentially more copies for higher star rating) but this game doesn't emphasize its PvP, so unless you plan on whaling you're not losing much.
For PvE you can pull through with everything as long as you choose your roster according to a faction. The reason why most SSRs are so coveted are for their Faction buffs and being able to deployed in any faction (like Leon).Also don't forget getting your R Servants to max. Star rank is more likely compared to SRs or SSRs.

Well yeah that is true, it's more I feel like we should have had a lot more characters from every game in general by this point but it's funny to me that Fates still fits that criteria because whomever is in charge of FEH is so afraid to try anything not proven to sell anymore, but instead they pander to a select 12. More the pressing issue here.
The thing is what has Fates realistically left to include? Considering every rotal retainer is in the game they have most of their cast in Heroes.

KeatonThis is everything left of Gen 1. That's not a lot, especially compared to the other games. It's actually about as much as what is left for SoV and I highly doubt we're getting another banner from that game in the foreseeable future (but that's more because of the small cast).
Now Gen 2 on the other hand is very likely to get a banner now since Selkie is popular and they introduced Beasts (plus Forrest and Kiragi are still noteable omissions). Still, the Hoshidan children were completely screwed over thanks to Wings of Fate and out of all things Rhajat being in the first banner.
But no, we're probably getting another Carmilla. After her Legendary, Mythic and Brave version of course. -
At least the male section looks like what it should. I'm pleasantly surprised by Eliwood's placement, it would be cool to have a proper version of him with good art.
Though why are there 2 BKs in Top 20? Didn't they merge votes (except Anna's because IS hates her)?But I will never understand why people keep voting the new OCs. Aside from design there is nothing we know about them, so what's the appeal here? Bone fetish?
And freaking Sutr at 16. Well, aren't we eager to make Arena/Aether Raids even more insufferable?The female list looks like the German Federal Election November 1932. That's all I have to say on that matter.
-
For my first impressions some issues I have with the game:
- Account binding through Facebook must be a bad joke. I would rather take a password-based system that the current one.
- The game is really upfront with its microtransactions. Apparently making a guild is locked behind it as well (the license costs 0.99).
- The translations leave a lot to be desired, especially for any non-english language. This is actually really bad gameplay-wise because some of the challenge objectives and skill description are botched because of it.
- The voice acting doesn't match the subtitles which shouldn't be a thing. They should have fixed that during the beta.
- The level restriction on the main quests is a bit annoying since a lot of mechanics are locked behind story progression.
Aside from these though the game is a lot of fun so far.
It actually feels like a proper SRPG on mobile instead of a watered-down experience like FEH. Despite the slow access to new mechanics it has the benefit of not overwhelming the player and this game has a lot to take in (class rank-ups, transfers, star rank etc.).
The Time Rift mode is amazing for someone who doesn't have any connection to the other Langrisser games and it gives a general idea what happened in those. Even better the mode has some replay value since you can grind some resources like scrolls and cheap equipement plus every story node has multiple challenges like 3-star requirements, bonus objectives and a hidden treasure. You have a lot to do right from the start and there is so much more that can be unlocked (I'm at Chapter 13).Also Riders have canto, Fliers are OP and you can warp-skip. What do you want more from a Fire Emblem game?I think my server is Baldea and the username is Ren as usual. Bernhardt is my Avatar.

If you want to use Siegfried you should look into St. George (or Georgios), a Bronze Rider you get from FP summon. This combination is more than useable.

Oh well, at least I can MLB this one and be done with it. -

Meanwhile everybody forgets that our favorite 1* Caster Mozart still doesn't have an NP upgrade. Never mind he only has 2 skills (no, Aesthetic Appreciation isn't worth counting).
It's very unlikely to be Shakespeare since he got what
32 upgrades? A possible Hans' upgrade sounds interesting but I can't imagine it to be substantial (unless they put buff success rate somewhere on his kit to make his NP consistent which would equal madness).Gold Berserker better be Beowulf. The guy really needs something to distinguish himself.
I hope the Gold Caster is Helena since very similarly to Fionn she suffers from painful CDs and could use a different flavour from Zhuge Liang. There are plenty of SR/SSR Casters that could use a buff like Edison or Da Vinci.
Gold Lancer ... Many come to mind.
I really wouldn't mind a Scathach buff. Lancer Artoria absolutely needs a NP buff, some of the old Lancers like Li or Elisabeth could use an upgrade to catch up to modern standards.
